    73 Grande full vinyl top bright edge trim / molding

    As far as I know all 3 years, 71-73 either had the black or the white paint on the trim. I replaced all my top trim with NOS Ford trim. Only colors I've seen were black and white. I was able to get most of the pieces in white, but a couple were black. I ended up repainting all of them white so...

    73 Grande full vinyl top bright edge trim / molding

    The trim is painted correctly as it came from the factory. Lower half of the trim is the bright silver anodized aluminum with the top half being painted either white or black depending on the roof covering color.

    73 Coupe Door Sill Plates

    As I recall there is a cardboard filler panel that goes over top of the dip in the rocker panel, so the carpet doesn't sag into it. Carpet goes under the edge of the sill plate.

    73 Coupe Door Sill Plates

    Door sill plates look correct. Looks like someone cut the carpet too short. The carpet goes up over the top of the rocker and under the sill plate. I made that mistake, so I know. Had to buy another carpet set. Expensive mistake. I have the repo sill plates in my car, other than being a little...

    Ford Carlisle

    I didn’t find any parts I really needed. My car is totally restored so not much I need. Need a few avocado interior pieces but they are hard to find. Limited space in a Mustang to take home any kind of large items anyway. The green Grande is my car. Had my 71-73 mustangs.com t shirts on both...

    OEM AM/FM radio repair

    Hi Chuck, I have had two car radios repaired by Retro Radio Restoration in Elizabethtown, PA. https://retroradio.biz/. 1st one was my AM/FM stereo in my 1973 Grande. It took a couple months if I remember to get it back, they go to most of the Carlisle, PA car shows so I dropped it off there to...

    I ordered the wrong heater hose

    I got the A/C hose set for my 73 Grande and there are two molded ends on each hose. Both Molded ends come off of the heater core. One that is S shaped goes between the heater core and heater control valve. By having the molded ends it does help put the hoses and control valve up higher and keeps...

    73 Grande Hardtop

    HI, that's a good looking Mustang you have there. Looks like mine with avocado interior and the 4C green exterior. Good luck on finding that side trim. I was lucky to find a complete NOS set on eBay awhile ago. I looked for many years for it. It took 8 years to restore mine. Been in the family...

    4K - 71 Mach 1 for sale near DC

    Ebay buyer must have paid for the car. Drove by the house yesterday and the Mustang is gone, just a pile of leaves laying around where it used to sit. It was still there Thursday afternoon so they must have got it over the weekend.

    4K - 71 Mach 1 for sale near DC

    I actually drive by this car every afternoon after work. Its on Greentree Road in Bethesda, MD. It has been sitting there in that same position as long as the seller says. The car cover was only put on sometime during this summer. Little too late to keep the tree leaves and debris from rotting...

Still need to put headliner, carpet, seats, seatbelts, center console, door panels, front and rear windshields in. Align the side glass...

    Positive feedback for midlife

    Just a quick note to say that Midlife is a great vendor to deal with. I needed a pigtail for my A/C heater controls. He had what I needed , quoted a fair price and shipped immediately once I sent payment. A+++.

    Interior rear view mirror

    The Ebay mirror is not correct for the 1971-73 Mustangs. The 71-73 Mustangs had the mirror glued onto the actual windshield. I will have to find my mirror for my 73 Grande' for pictures if no one else puts one up for you. It's in one of the many boxes of parts I have as I took my car apart for...

    Grande Vinyl roof Trim

    Your Grande emblem looks to be in the correct spot. Looks kind of strange by itself without the top trim surrounding it. The top trim uses several style of clips and fasteners. Right at the top above the rain gutters there should be small welded on to the body sheet metal rivets which secure...
